Who produces the honey? 

The bees of Antonio Simon, a 4thgeneration beekeeper who takes pride in producing honey in a traditional way without adding or taking away anything. Antonio's hives are mainly based in the mountain ranges of north of Madrid. His beekeeping practices and the land he has his hives on have been certified as organic by the Committee of Organic Agriculture in Madrid.

Raw Organic Wild Lavender Honey

This is a light and pleasing herb flower honey, it has floral notes and a creaminess like vanilla - but doesn't have quite as strong a flavour as honey from cultivated lavender. This honey comes from bees feeding on the wild lavender bushes in the Sierra del Pradena.

The oil from lavender is widely used as an essential oil in aromatherapy, because it is said to aid relaxation and sleep. Wild lavender honey is good for protecting and soothing abrasions and burns (although obviously see your doctor if it is a bad abrasion or burn). It is also especially good poured over cheese! And because it is so mild children love it on its own and appreciate the subtle taste.

Raw Organic Eucalyptus Honey 

This is a really beautiful tasting honey; it has a wonderfully fruity creaminess along with a very mild eucalyptus/menthol aftertaste. Suitable for all ages as it is not overbearing in any way. This is a relatively light-tasting tree honey. It shares characteristics with other herbal honeys, such as thyme or sage.

Eucalyptus honey is a variety with a unique composition.  It contains traces of eucalyptol which gives it its fresh revitalizing taste. This essential oil is often used in aromatherapy as a decongestant and antiseptic.

Raw Organic Oak Honey

This is a very deep and rich tasting tree honey; it has a fruitiness as well as a deep woody flavour. Tree honey tends to be dark, have a stronger flavour and are less likely to set due to a relatively low glucose content. This Oak is a London Honey Awards and a Great Taste Award Winner! 

This variety of oak honey comes from trees growing at the Sierra del Rincon UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, where no chemical treatments are allowed. The trees grow at around 1100 metres in an extremely wild and untouched place.

Most Oak honey comes from the acorns of the oak tree. The bees collect a sweet fluid that the acorns weep in July and August and from this the bees create a unique type of honey. Other types of tree honey are produced solely from the residue left by the activity of aphids on trees - but this is not the case with the oak honey. The bees directly collect the sweet fluid mainly from the acorns. It tends to be less sweet than other honeys and can be very potent.

Antonio's Raw Organic Multifloral Honey

This honey generally has a light and creamy flavour with a slight menthol taste and a good amount of floral wild flowers, though it can also have a much darker and bolder flavour depending on the batch. This variety makes for a great entry point to the world of raw honeys. 

This Multifloral honey comes from a remote village called Patones, located in the Jarama Valley in the northeast of Madrid, Spain. It is a certified organic zone.

Multifloral honey varies widely depending on the areas the bees have been feeding on, it can be wild meadows or forest flowers or just a mix of any flora in the local area. This honey is particularly good to use as a skin treatment to aid in clearing blemishes, spots and acne.

How Raw Honey is Different from Processed Honey

Raw honey generally means the honey has not been processed, it has come from the hive to the jar with minimal interference. Most supermarket honey is highly processed to make it look more attractive, usually it has been largely drained of pollen, heated and blended. Raw honey tends to vary from batch to batch, this is because it is not processed in a factory, filtered or heated to look homogeneous. Raw honey changes with the season and climate, the soil, what the bees feed on, and the nature of the colonies.

Crystallisation

Please know that raw honey does crystallise and is a natural process of raw honey (therefore we cannot except returns on honey that may have crystallised). We indicate on the website the state of each honey - either runny or crystallised but be aware this is to the best of our knowledge and the state can change quickly. If you want your honey runny and it has crystallised it's very easy to return it to runny go to this link Runny Honey or see this section under our FAQ's Why Is My Honey Crystallised?

1
How long has Antonio been a beekeeper?
Antonio has been keeping bees all his life. (He is now over 70.) Antonio is the fourth generation of his family to keep bees going right back to his Great Grandfather in 1897. Now the fifth generation of his family is taking over via is his son Dani and son-in-law Ruben.
2
What is the story behind Antonio?
As Antonio says, his family’s beekeeping has always been organic both in principle and practice. When organic certification was introduced in Spain Antonio was one of the first to take it up. In fact, Antonio is a pioneer of organic beekeeping in Spain and a key proponent. He is regarded as one of the best, if not the best, organic beekeeper in Spain. He also teaches beekeeping. Often, he appears on TV and in the press on matters relating to beekeeping. Because of his depth of knowledge beekeepers travel from all over the world to learn from him. One time when I visited him we were joined by some beekeepers from Venezuela eager to learn from him. Now he is largely retired from day to day activities but still has some involvement. Now his son Dani and son in law Ruben do most of the beekeeping, meticulously following the practices that Antonio laid down, based on four generations of experience..
3
What is the status of Antonio’s honey?
His honey is 100% raw, meaning it’s never heated or filtered beyond coarse filtering to remove any debris from the hive. processed. This ensures it retains all its natural enzymes, pollen, and beneficial properties. In addition, Antonio follows strict organic beekeeping practices, ensuring his bees forage in unpolluted areas free from pesticides and synthetic chemicals. Also, there are other requirements, such as no sugar feeding and that the hives are made of completely natural materials. Antonio is fortunate to be able to keep some hives in one of the purest places in Spain. His Oak, Heather and Wild Lavender hives are the Sierra del Rincon UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. The hives are in an area that is limited to Reserve Rangers and beekeepers and no one else – meaning this area is exceptionally pure.
4
What types of honey does Antonio produce?
Antonio has the widest range of organic honey varieties in Spain that are available directly from the beekeeper (and not via a reseller who may sell honey from many countries). His varieties include oak, chestnut, heather, wild lavender, lavender, rosemary, thyme, eucalyptus, orange blossom, arbutus, honeycomb in a jar and multifloral honey. Antonio also sells fresh and dried bee pollen.
5
Where does Antonio keep his hives?
As mentioned above Antonio has some hives in the Sierra del Rincon, which is part of the Sierra de Guadarrama mountain range, north of Madrid. He also has hives in other areas of the Sierra de Guardarrama such as Patones, where his organic Rosemary honey is created. Because of climate change Antonio moves some hives to different locations such as Portugal where his Chestnut and Eucalyptus honey comes from, also some Oak from time to time.
6
What else should I know about Antonio’s honey?
His honey has won many awards over the years. In recent times Antonio’s Rosemary and Oak have both won Platinum in the London Honey Awards. This is the top award in a prodigious competition. Additionally, his Oak got two stars in the Great Taste Awards a couple of years ago. And in Spain in the Communidad de Madrid area Antonio’s Oak just won the award as the best dark honey for the 7th time!
7
What is a good way to use Antonio’s honey?
His Rosemary is beautiful in a Salad dressing or poured over cheese. His Oak and Chestnut honeys are go to honeys when you need to make a drink to ease a cough or sore throat.
